"ANANKE" WAS THE POWERFUL GREEK "GODDESS OF NECESSITY", THE DARK MOTHER OF THE "FATES" AND THE FORCE OF" DESTINY". SHE EMERGED SELF-FORMED AT THE BEGINNING OF TIME. NEITHER GODS NOR MAN COULD RESIST HER. SHE SITS AT THE CENTER OF THE UNIVERSE WHILE HER THREE DAUGHTERS GOVERN THE FATE OF EVERY SOUL, BUT IT IS SHE, "ANANKE", WHO ESTABLISHES WHAT THE SOUL HAS SELECTED FOR ITS LOT TO BE NECESSARY. HER MATE IS "KRONOS", THE PRINCIPLE OF "TIME". IT IS SAID SHE HAD NEITHER BODY OR FACE.

SHE DID NOT HAVE TEMPLES NOR PRIESTS BECAUSE NO PRAYERS OR OFFERINGS OR SACRIFICES COULD CHANGE WHAT WAS NECESSARY. THERE ARE NO IMAGES THAT THAT REPRESENT HER AND NO SYMBOLS THAT STAND FOR HER. YET, SHE IS PRESENT IN ALL THAT HAPPENS. THERE WAS NO COUNTERMANDING HER WILL FOR SHE RULED ALL NATURE AND CULTURE. "ANANKE "IS THE STEADY MARCH OF TIME.
